This NTP technical report describes long-term rat studies exposing animals to 900 MHz GSM and CDMA-modulated radiofrequency radiation at whole-body SAR levels of 0, 1.5, 3, and 6 W/kg, including exposure beginning before birth. The abstract reports NTP concluded there was "clear evidence" for malignant schwannoma of…

This animal study assessed redox-state changes in rat brain cells after long-term low-intensity ionizing radiation exposure or fractionated non-thermal UHF electromagnetic radiation. Both exposures were associated with decreased ubisemiquinone and increased NO-FeS-protein complexes, alongside increased mitochondrial…

This animal study examined low-intensity 900 MHz electromagnetic radiation (25 μW/cm2) and its effects on rat brain and blood serum enzymes linked to energy metabolism. The authors report that brain creatine kinase activity was the most radiosensitive among the enzymes measured and propose it as a marker of RF…

This rat study tested whether acute exposure to 0.9 and 1.8 GHz continuous-wave radiofrequency radiation alters blood-brain barrier permeability. Using Evans-blue/albumin as a tracer, the authors report no BBB leakage in exposed female rats but a significant increase in albumin in exposed male rat brains versus sham.…

This animal study assessed DNA damage in rat brain, liver, and kidney cells after repeated whole-body exposure to 915 MHz GSM-modulated RF radiation (SAR 0.6 W/kg) using the comet assay. Tail length was slightly increased in brain cells and differed more notably in liver and kidney samples versus sham controls, while…

This animal study examined whether an extremely low frequency magnetic field (7 mT, 40 Hz) used in magnetotherapy alters oxidative balance in rat brain after 10 days of exposure. The 30 min/day exposure condition was associated with increased lipid peroxidation, while the 60 min/day condition was associated with…
